THE STORY SO FAR

SEE PERFORMANCE

It's a critical factor of any SUV. But what do we mean when we refer to performance? Is it simply torque? Handling? Acceleration? Maybe even efficiency? After all, conventional logic dictates that one must invariably come at the cost of another.

However, the Bentayga is a Bentley. And when designing it, our approach was that performance can no longer be defined as a single quality but the ability to combine them all - without compromise to any.

The all-new W12 TSI engine is the most technically advanced 12 cylinder engine in the world, delivering the most power, torque and economy of any car in its class. But even this is too narrow a description of what true performance is.

Only when you drive the Bentayga and feel the smooth, sophisticated balance with which such raw yet efficient power is distributed, over any imaginable terrain, does it become clear.

It's time to see performance through new eyes.

In the film below, you'll receive your first real glimpse of the Bentayga on the ice. This is true footage of the test vehicle being put through its paces in the wild. Enjoy the ride.

SEE TECHNOLOGY

At its launch, the Bentayga will be the most advanced Bentley yet - and the world's most luxurious SUV. But the innovations inside are not present just to impress. They are there to heighten the sense of style.

Every SUV affords its occupants an elevated view. But none truly compels them to connect with the landscape. Only the Bentayga, with its unique combination of class-leading comfort, refinement and performance, empowers them to look at their world in new ways.

SEE TEXTURE

Nowhere in the world are cars crafted with the same passion and skill as they are in the Bentley factory. Because, when it comes to the way we experience a car, the way it feels matters just as much as the way it looks. Texture is everything. That's why veneers are sanded and varnished repeatedly, before being passed for use inside a Bentley. It's why leather hides are only accepted from farmers whose animals graze at high altitudes - where it's colder and insect bites are less common, leading to fewer imperfections in the leather. And it's why every Bentley upholsterer signs his own name on the back of the hide when completing a seat.

With the arrival of the Bentayga, the world will see craftsmanship of this calibre applied to the SUV for the first time. For those lucky enough to experience it, new heights of luxury will be reached. For the rest of the world, the SUV category will never look the same again.

SEE LIGHT

Scheduled for launch in late 2015, the Bentayga has been three years in the making. It is a vehicle designed from the outset to take luxury to new heights, changing forever the way the world sees the SUV and introducing a bold new chapter to Bentley's dynamic design language.â¨
